Christopher Maloney: 'I want a duet with Gary Barlow' - video

The singer spoke to Digital Spy at last night's secret X Factor gig in London.

"My dream come true if I get to the final would be Gary," Maloney said.

"He's been such a brilliant mentor and he's turned into a really good friend. I wouldn't pick anybody else."

Of being a controversial figure on the show, Maloney said: "It upsets me a little bit. All I'm doing, I wanna do well for myself.

"And I wanna do well for my family and everyone who's supported me and brought me in as a wild card."
